The Black Rose

By Diane Kaye

Since my last escapade into the BDSM world, I'd heard that the Black Rose was having its convention in my area. They had booked an entire hotel for the long weekend and people from all over were there to discuss their interests with each other. In addition, there was a vendors section worth checking out. Being the curious type, I decided to go and see what it was all about.

Now this girl always dresses for the occasion, so...hmm what do you wear to a BDSM convention? A plain dress or slacks is definitely not the thing to wear. Black is appropriate. Well girls, for those of you who like to dress fetish, this is the perfect place to go. You will blend in completely. It's probably the only place a crossdresser could go dressed in extreme fetish clothing and look completely appropriate. With that in mind, the best I could muster up was a 3/4 sleeved black sparkly blouse, black leather mini-skirt, gaudy earrings, black garter stockings, black heels, and, of course, the bustier. Not your average mall clothes, but definitely underdressed for the occasion. I never thought I’d dress like a hooker, go to a public place and be underdressed! Most of the attendees were dressed in vinyl, skin tight, and showing everything but bare nipples. There were GG’s, trying on corsets, who had stripped naked in the vendor area. One GG had on her corset and the smallest waist I’ve ever seen. There was also the average gold vinyl body suit. There was a dom with her sub who was a male dressed as young girl. No beard cover, so not a CD in my book. Another dom had her sub on a chain, while another had hers on the end of a long rope. I have to admit, as a T-girl, I had to restrain myself from staring. After all, a girl must keep her composure. I even saw a guy with a beard, wearing a dress and heels, not a pretty sight. How I hate hair.

Nudity was also common. There were a lot of scene clothes, corsets, and whips for sale. Assorted adult toys abound. After some shopping, I checked out the lectures. There was a discussion on the legal aspects of the BDSM scene, and what cops did when stopping folks coming and going to a BDSM party, dressed. Seems like the leather folks get the same type of harassment as we TG folks do. In fact I got the impression they are looked upon as being perverted. When I went to the second lecture discussing play and its aspects, I found out that much of it is good healthy sex with the acting parts used to heighten the senses. Naturally, there are some who are into pain and body mutilation, but the majority of the casual players, are just enjoying each other. After all, sex is suppose to be a wonderful experience, not something to be shunned. It was interesting to listen to people talking openly about their sexual interests and what forms of sex they enjoy. Not your typical social tea discussion. There was genuine sincerity in their talk and a keen interest in pleasing their partners.

After the lectures, I went back to the vendors and bought a cute black vinyl dress for future use. Couldn’t resist the chance to shop. Now remember girls, if you look good in it, buy it. As it was getting late, I decided to call it a night and head out to the monthly meeting where I was to perform on my keyboard for the girls. I always like playing my music to an audience. It also gave me the chance to try on that lovely red dress I had bought at the thrift store a few months ago. It fit perfectly and I got many compliments. What a way to end a great day. Well girls, that’s about it for my low keyed day out.

Now don’t get the wrong idea about Diane. She loves to explore, but is a cautious explorer and never takes chances. A girl must keep her dignity. Until the next time, enjoy yourself, it may be later than you think.
